Question

Choose the option that best fills in the blank:

She is strong ____ me.

• A. like
• B. but
• C. as
• D. though

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

Option A - 'As' is used for comparison in sentences like these - 'She is as strong as me.' As the given sentence doesn't use 'as', we can't use 'as' after 'strong' here. Thus option A is incorrect.

Option C - 'Though' is used to explain 'despite the fact'. Thus option C is incorrect.

Option D - 'But' is used to explain reasons and contrasting statements. Thus option D is incorrect.

Option B - 'Like' is used as a conjunction to explain someone who is in the same way or like the other. Thus option B is the correct answer.

'She is strong like me.'
